its an interception
When a quarterback throws to an receiver or anyone on offense eligible on then the yards thrown from where the ball was placed and the offense player catches and extends the play until he Is tackled out of bounds or scores
The Quarterback typically throws the ball to the receiver. However, any player on the Offense can attempt a forward pass.
When the offense fakes a run and then throws a pass, it is typically referred to as a "play-action pass." This tactic aims to deceive the defense into thinking a run is imminent, which can create openings for receivers by drawing defenders closer to the line of scrimmage. By effectively selling the run fake, the offense can often gain a strategic advantage.
An incomplete pass. Unless a member of the defense catches it, then it's an interception.
Incomplete Pass
incomplete pass
An incompletion is a pass that is not caught by the offense or defense. A pass that is caught by the defense is called an interception. A pass that is caught by the offense is called a reception.
If an incomplete pass occurs several things will happen 1. The timer is stopped 2. The line of scrimmage stays where it is and does not move forward or backward 3. One down is lost (like if it is 3rd down it will be 4th down) 4. The play ends
No. After making a reception of a forward pass all yards, gained or lost, after the catch are considered receiving yards to the receiver and passing yards to the quarterback. EXAMPLE: The line of scrimmage is the offense's 10 yard line. The quarterback throws a forward pass that is completed at the offense's 15 yard line and the receiver runs to the offense's 30 yard line before being tackled. The receiver is credited with 20 receiving yards and the quarterback is credited with 20 passing yards. EXAMPLE 2: The line of scrimmage is the offense's 10 yard line. The quarterback throws a forward pass that is completed at the offense's 12 yard line and the receiver runs laterally/backwards to the offense's 8 yard line before being tackled. The receiver is credited with -2 receiving yards and the quarterback is credited with -2 passing yards.

In American and Canadian Football, a ball can be passed forward from behind the line of scrimmage. If the ball falls on the ground it is called an incomplete pass. That means no one caught it. It can also be called an incomplete. That is a short way of saying "It is an incomplete forward pass."
